USER MANUAL CR 2001 VDO DAYTON

If your car is equipped with ISO connectors, simply insert them in connectors of the car radio. If not, you can use an adaptor cable (Refer to the table on the separate installation card). Ensure all cables are installed so that they cannot be damaged by sharp edges or moving parts.

PREPARATION

Voltage and polarity: The set must be connected to a 12V car battery with negative terminal to earth (car chassis). Installation in vehicles not fulfilling these requirements could result in malfunction, damage or fire.

Warning: To prevent short-circuiting, disconnect the negative car battery terminal until the set has been mounted and connected (fig.1 See separate installation card).

CONNECTOR A (fig.2)

POWER SUPPLY CONNECTIONS

  • Red lead A7 : Connect to a permanent 12V supply. This is the main power supply. Ensure this connection can handle a current of 10A.
  • Yellow/red lead A4 : Connect to a switched 12V supply (switched on/off by car ignition).
  • Brown lead A8: Connect to earth (car chassis).

This connection set up will enable you to make full use of the ON/OFF LOGIC function of this set limiting the use of the set to 1 hour after removal of the ignition key.
